A FAMILY owned manufacturing company in Holsworthy has received a visit from the Member of Parliament for Torridge and West Devon, who commended the business on its diversity.

Geoffrey Cox visited Moo Free chocolates in Holsworthy last month, during one of his regular constituency days.

Mr Cox said: “This family owned manufacturer, which was awarded the Queen’s Award for Enterprise in 2016, is a real asset to the area. It was a pleasure to visit them to celebrate the wonderful diversity of superb businesses in Torridge and West Devon, and I was particularly delighted to learn of their support for, and employment of, people with autistic spectrum disorders.”
